Managing Generation Y
+
Three generations are now in the workplace, and the youngest ? Generation Y ? are making their mark. They view the workplace very differently from Baby Boomers or Generation X. Having grown up with technology, they are digital natives ? information and communication has always been instant. They want to go a long way in a short time; they often don't settle for just being told - they want to know why; and being constantly connected with a social network is, more often than not, critical to survival. Featuring comment from author and director of Essence Communications Penny Burke, James Masini from Hippo Jobs and Susan Lin, the Young Australian Businessperson of the Year, this program explores a range of issues and strategies associated with attracting, retaining, effectively managing, and capitalising on the many strengths of Generation Y workers.

Safety First
OH&S in the Office
+
Many Americans spend a large portion of their working lives in an office. Although most of us wouldn't consider this a workplace of high risk, we must not assume that safety in an office is a given. In this program we'll consider the reasons for conducting work safely, and look at how to implement workplace safety requirements. We'll also talk about participating in the OH&S consultative process and following safety procedures. Occupational health and safety is everybody's responsibility, not just the employer's. Employees can and should take a hands-on approach to improving the safety of their workplace.
